HockeyRulez Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 I kinda got screwed since i bought an Apple Mac. I saved my game files from the PC, but i just realized that Steam is not available for a Mac. So..... how do i install the game now? I tried searching through here but i got lost one too many times. Thanks guys and have a great Sunday! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heelswxman Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 You can buy the boxed version of WWSM from Amazon. That's what I did when I got my new Mac, if you backed up all your save games and graphics they'll still work on your Mac. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schotsmannetje Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 As a Mac user I don't know how Steam works, but isn't it possible to put the Steam version on a disc somehow? As you don't need a reg key for Mac anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heelswxman Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 thanks dude. I really appreciated your help No worries. It's hard finding Mac info around here, but let me know if you need anything. You may find issues installing the latest patch, (you'll not be able to bid on a player in game), which will require you to completely erase WWSM from your Mac and re-install. I know many guys ran into that problem. It's not nearly as intensive as it sounds, and trust me, it's worth it. My Macbook absolutely KILLS my PC, that had a faster processor. The Mac is so much more stable. As a Mac user I don't know how Steam works, but isn't it possible to put the Steam version on a disc somehow? As you don't need a reg key for Mac anyway. You know, I'm not sure. I think there may be a problem with extracting the file once you get it onto a Mac, but I don't know. I bought the game from Steam on my PC but never tried this.

Bruce Higham Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I just wanted to say congratulations on buying a superior computer and operating system, thats all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schotsmannetje Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I just wanted to say congratulations on buying a superior computer and operating system, thats all Hahaha, yeah dito!! Anyhoe, just a little tip from my own experience. Unlike PC's which mainly require high processing power, Macs eat RAM for breakfast. Get as much RAM in there as possible. And don't buy your RAM cards through Apple, they overprice them immensly. You can just buy your RAM cards at the local PC-shop. Make sure you have the right type though. I haven't followed the "market" lately, but I think it should be fairly economical nowadays to pop about 8 Gyg of RAM (2 times 4) in there. Should give you a monster of a machine. EDIT: I stand corrected. I thought that the prices of 4 GB Ram Cards had dropped considerably since the last time I looked at them, but they are still quite pricy.

Crucial is a great site for Mac RAM. I've read that some Macs have issues with certain brands of RAM but Crucial is assured to work. I bought 4gb of RAM from there for about 60 US dollars.
